At the moment I play Minecraft and CsGo but I want a graphics card to start playing more games like battlefield 1 black ops 3 etc. (I have 8gb RAM)

My first option is buy Gtx 1050Ti 4GB
My second option is buy an Rx 460 2or4GB (How many do you suggest me) and another 8gb ram

What option should I choose? Do you suggest me buy another card (MAX 200DOLLARS CAN'T SAVE UP MORE)

Thanks for reading!!

Don't add another stick of ram, it will not give you better performance on games.
If you want a RX 460 or GTX 1050 check benchmarks on youtube , to check if you're happy with it and you can handle the settings on game.

About CPU, at today, yes.

Battlefield 1 is a highly CPU intensive game, so maybe you will have a trouble there.

Well, the best deal wil lbe GTX 1060 or RX 470 4GB-RX 480 4gb or 8gb (not sure if is your budget)

But, try to pick an 4GB VRAM card, 1080p will be happy with that.

I have Corsair Kingston Vengeance 8GB what 4gb ram do you suggest me? Btw Rx 470 4gb costs 210 in my country. I have 200 dollars to spend. Does my cpu really matters? I have and a8 7650K 3.30mhz. Is that good? What gpu should I buy?

Also one stupid question. What does 4gb (gigabytes) mean? For example Rx 460 4gb. If I have 8gb ram with this card ill have 12. I know its probably a stupid af question but..

RAM from the system is completly different from the 4GB VRAM from the GPU.

In short terms:
The ram is used by the system for the programs and SO.

4GB VRAM from GPU is used to generating the image in your screen from the games.

System RAM != VRAM GPU.

Now: 8GB of RAM at today, is the minimum to play games, so in that point you're fine. Now, the CPU and GPU is crucial to get a good experience.
